Congrats on the new puppy. If I may make a few suggestions to you to raise a confident Chi. Let him walk don't carry him around, they really want to socialize. When he gets a bit older a puppy socialization class will build confidence. Sadly so many end up in rescues because they are aggressive, and most of it occurs from being over protective. I have friend who has a great one his bff is a Neapolitan Mastiff who is 210 pounds. He is treated just like a big dog and I think he thinks he is too. We love pics please post some.
